biden and president and there were tense relationships when when joe biden was vice president during the obama administration and the 2 didn't go on terribly well perhaps joe biden feels slightly emboldened that he can take this step no because turkey is in a slightly weaker economic position that they're not likely to announce any huge backlash to me talk about it but really economically they can't really heart the united states and we know that joe biden one year ago on the 24th of april last year when he was then candidate biden said that he was going to take this step and he would perhaps have been emboldened by the fact that both the house and the senate in a bipartisan nature back in 2019 actually called this a genocide as well so i had all of that to the fact that the biggest armenian diaspora in the world is in the united states and particularly inside southern california joe biden obviously felt that this was a good time to make the move to on or a promise that he made and also believing that the backlash from russia from tucky might not be so big there is a problem though a

biden has in the last 15 or 20 minutes those who support joe biden more say look if you look at the historians they all recognize this as a genocide the turks in the past have said well you can't hold people to account for what happened in 1800 by today's standards but of course there was a military tribunal in turkey after this incident and they found those guilty of war crimes the people that were responsible for this so it is a significant moment we can expect that there will be some harsh words from ankara we nor the turks in the past have condemned comments from the catholic pope when he has recognized the genocide and other world leaders when they have either recognized that. come close to recognizing it relationships between washington and ankara haven't been great over recent years that has in the eyes of many here in washington post the tarts more towards vladimir putin this would help it's interesting talking about the reaction from turkey because we actually heard from president red tape earlier this week on thursday in at to space and at this announcement from joe biden

biden and the president of the one do not get on well that goes back to joe biden this time as vice president in the obama administration there have been tensions between the united states and turkey over recent years there was always a feeling that presidents were unwilling to go this far and declare what happened to the armenians as genocide because turkey was a close ally it straddles europe and the middle east there were u.s. air bases in turkey they really didn't want to upset ankara this decision by joe biden to make this announcement has been welcomed by nancy pelosi the speaker of the house saying her hearts are full of joy this will not help relations between ankara and washington d.c. . many thanks for that alan fischer giving us reaction from washington d.c. well turkey has rejected the announcement on twitter the foreign minister said words cannot change or rewrite history we have nothing to learn from anybody on our own past but it's cool opportunism is the greatest betrayal to peace and justice when tani reject the statement based solely on populism let's go to cinemas

president joe biden has pledged to cut u.s. carbon emissions inhofe by 2030 it's the most ambitious plan to target ever set in u.s. history some 40 countries are taking part of the 2 day virtual climate summit that biden is hosting from the white house analysts said biden special put pressure on other countries to follow suit china and russia put aside their disputes with the u.s. and also pledged to cooperate in fighting climate change but they have yet to announce specific emissions targets. but for more on this i'm not joined by she's the head of the macarthur research institute on global commons on climate change i think that here in berlin we'll get to how much of a game changer is biden's pledge. i would say it really is a game changer and yesterday though the whole day was a game changer for pa climate i would say because it's not only the case that joe biden the u.s. puts on the table a new target for 2030 but they also manage that other countries join them and putting more in their 1st target on the table i think u.k.

biden calling president putin a killer on international television and then this final blow out by joe biden signing what can only be called a sanction spree so that package includes a $32.00 russian entities and individuals sanction for allegedly interference in last year's presidential election stateside a range of financial and technology firms targeted for power and cyber attacks on federal agencies 10 russian diplomats expelled borrowing money international made more difficult for russia to and why anyone reasonable would look at this and say well this is pretty extensive apparently joe biden claims that this was his take it easy on russia set of sanctions and that ultimately all he really wants is to be friendly and the pressure dial down united states is not looking to kick off the. school is she in conflict with russia we want a stable predictable relationship is the time to deescalate well saying that after announcing a slew of sanctions is mixed messages it's illogical it's very confusing i mean generally punishment and deescalation don't go hand in hand so you can see why th

president joe biden has announced all u.s. and nato troops will have to quit afghanistan by september the 11th saying it is time to end the forever war however that has angered the taliban which says it had a great an earlier exit date with donald trump is not a gas he has been looking at what the future holds for the country after 2 decades of war. joe biden says this is it the end of the afghan war no more extentions apart from well these last one until september we cannot continue the cycle of extending or expanding our military presence in afghanistan hoping to create ideal conditions for the drawn and expecting a different result according to the deal struck between trump and the taliban america was supposed to be gone in a couple of weeks time by may 1st but the president the new president claimed that didn't give him enough time the new date is symbolically september 11th and the thousands of u.s. and nato troops on that date will have left in light of this and recognizing that there is no military solution to the chall

that after a recent spate of mass shootings president joe biden announces his 1st gun control measures he moves to tighten some regulations but warns much more is needed. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us the number of refugees fleeing the military's violent crackdown in myanmar is rising india should india shares a 600 kilometer border with me on mar with strong ethnic and cultural ties between local communities on both sides so india might seem the natural destination for those forced to leave their homes but can those who end up there feel at home we meet one woman and her daughters who have settled in the indian capital delhi a warning some viewers may find this report to starving. for the last 6 years and her girls have felt safe here in delhi but it didn't come easy to get here they had to leave everything behind in their need of man much when he says her husband was tortured and killed by the military. later they were forced to run for their lives after they were caught sheltering students protesting against the military now the situation in myanmar is bringing bac

well there is no question that that is one of the major themes of joe biden the u.s. president's message to the world leaders in this global climate summit that the united states after 4 years of climate denial when it comes to the science regarding climate change under president donald trump that the united states is back but this is also the united states hoping to lead by example the u.s. president joe biden believing that the announcements of the planned cuts for missions that he has charted out that this is something that can challenge other global nations given the fact that this is really something that he sees as an existential threat so that is why he has laid out these ambitious goals and he's hoping that others will do the same but it's not just the international message that joe biden is projecting he's also projecting and was very much a speech aimed at the domestic audience because his plans for a global or rather a green economy here in the united states have not been met with sort of overwhelming enthusiasm particularly by some conservatives in the uni

president joe biden's new climate policy. replacing attitude on climate change. before that there was almost an ounce of life in the usa oh yes it would grow from that climate convention which was a. huge amount of accumulated you know it's got to think that commitment $100000000000.00. that is expected expected by the developing countries must be phased in a recent media interview prime minister sheikh hasina say that bangladesh loses 2 percent off its g.d.p. to extreme climate events every year and spends 2.5 percent off its g.d.p. on climate adaptations bangladesh contributes merely 0.35 percent of global carbon emissions yet it is people like anwar a beggar who are paying the price for global warming for them climate diplomacy means very little time to charge 3 al-jazeera bangladesh you can find much more on our web site the address for you there is al jazeera don't come. and let's take you through some of the headlines here now to syria now president joe biden opened the global climate summit with 40 world leaders pledging to cut in half the coal and petrole

president joe biden and russian president vladimir putin to secure a u.s. desire for a predictable relationship the united states announced a surprise russia sanctions we cannot allow foreign power to interfere in our democratic process with impunity more than 30 russian entities are being targeted at least 10 russian diplomats will be expelled from the united states and some tech firms are being punished for allegedly providing support to russian intelligence sanctions also put in place rules banning some financial dealings involving russia sovereign debt to choke off lending and inflict economic harm we want a stable predictable relationship and russia continues interfere with our democracy i'm prepared to take further actions to respond. the white house says the sanctions are retaliation for russia's alleged aggressive actions including the occupation of crimea interference in u.s. presidential elections and last year solar winds hack that infiltrated the computers of thousands of u.s. businesses and government agencies. the sanctions also respond to unc

clear that joe biden was going to pursue national security leaks just like barack obama did and just like donald trump did after him on his 1st day in office joe biden temporarily limited drone strikes outside the battle zones of afghanistan syria and iraq however he reportedly wants to boost exports to countries including those with controversial human rights record with it comes as there is growing public concern over the if of varying death toll from drone attacks. i have to tell you when he called me a few hours ago he was surprisingly upbeat and optimistic and he he remarked about how much press this issue has been getting since he decided to plead guilty so in the end i think that he thinks that this is been worth it that americans know more about the drone program now than 8 they did 6 months ago or a year ago and even though he's likely going to go to prison it was worth it the u.s. is flying these drones or at least it was until recently that were used ostensibly to kill terrorists or would be terrorists but in reality to kill anybody who might resemble a terrorist and that

joe biden has unveiled a new infrastructure package that has left many people confused in part because it does contain all sorts of nudges that appear to have little to do infrastructure and about a 3rd of americans seem to support it with trying to unpick it his element. joe biden's infrastructure plan is getting a fair amount of criticism polls show the country is pretty divided when it comes to the plan itself but overwhelmingly americans do agree that infrastructure should be a priority joe biden is selling the plan as a jobs creator then american jobs plan is an investment in america that will create millions of good jobs rebuild our country's infrastructure and position the united states to compete china public domestic investment as a share of the economy has fallen by more than 40 percent since the 1960 s. then merican jumps but he will invest in america in a way we have not invested since we built the interstate highways and won the space race. a plan to get america moving again and get those cast aside by the pandemic back into the workplace has certainly got america talking

president joe biden he says the u.s. will now him to cut emissions by 52.

clear that joe biden was going to pursue national security leaks just like barack obama did and just like donald trump did after him and you can watch the full version of our interview with john kerry on watching the hawks throughout the day hey on our. disagreements between the u.s. state of georgia and major corporations are a disputed new voting in a with escalates into a tit for tat a series of threats and even but we cause. more pain has the story. coca-cola has long marketed itself around the world as uniquely american something that unites the entire united states but not any more this legislation is always. this legislation is wrong. and we were. given google's shoes to cave to the. out of control can still go we respectively rick was issued an old coca-cola company brother looks to be removed from our office huge immediately just because you run a soft drink company doesn't mean you get to control our democracy georgia has put forward a new voting laws requiring photo id to vote to get to lety bills and matching signatures no longer accepted the proposed voting legislation a

biden for the crisis on the border and they don't blame the previous administration joe biden has only been president for 3 months he campaigned against donald trump and his policies at the border which he labeled as cruel now that joe biden is in office the flow of migrants is the highest it's been in 15 years many were shocked to see that among those trying to get in were 2 yemenis who are on the f.b.i.'s terrorism watch list. now amid all of this nancy pelosi assures us things are getting better we're on a cliff hanger at the border under the leadership of joe biden president fighting to sit there restructuring how we do what is happening there because who are not very bad situation under the chump that ministration 300 sheriffs from around the country have signed a letter calling for immediate action saying that joe biden's policies put communities in danger the borders don't work in the expose your susans to more nutrients national violence in our communities more drugs who are new to our communities cherishing to be trafficking out of control but change does not seem to be in ord
